How to update same input with javascript

Question

I have to droppable area with same name, I need input for each to save it then in different places. The problem is its just creating new input after clicking save button but I need to update already existing input and creating new one. You can see sample here I am using this function to create input for each of the boxes. in my work it can be even more than 2. It depends on user's input:

var LISTOBJ = {
    saveList: function() {
        $(".projLeader").each(function() {
            var listCSV = [];
            $(this).find("li").each(function(){
                listCSV.push($(this).text());
            });
            var values = listCSV.join(', ');
            $(".output").append("<input type='text' name='projLeader[]' value='"+values+"' /></br>");
            console.debug(listCSV);
        });
    }
}

Let me check it inside my system, in fiddle seems like yes. So you just clear output every time before appending values again right?
